    Illumina sequencing user meeting at CRUK Cambridge Research: February 17th 5-6PM...

    Dear All,

    There will be a meeting for Cambridge users of the CRI Illumina sequencers at CRI next month. Illumina will be presenting a roadmap update to showcase the new HiSeq sequencer (http://www.illumina.com/systems/hiseq_2000.ilmn) and the developments in sample prep that are coming in the spring. There will also be presentations from two local users, if you would like to present at one of our meetings please let me know. We will be hosting meetings in May, Aug and Nov at the Gurdon Institute, Plant Sciences and LMB.

    This meeting will be held in the CRI lecture theatre from 5-6 on Wednesday 17th of February. There will be beer and pizza afterwards so stick around and talk with other users in Cambridge. Please confirm your attendance so we order enough!

    Please let me know if anyone you work with would also like to come along.

    See you in February.
    Sincerely,
    James.

    Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
    by SEQadmin2


    I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

    Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

    From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
    by SEQadmin2


    Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


    The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
